I have a WC-78 Select-O-Matic that I got a while back.
AZ machine which is sun-faded and a little coin door vandalism attached (but not too bad). It is not nice enough to put in the house, but will make a good garage machine. I tried to polish it up a little, but the front and left side are just sun beat!
I spent a little time/money on it and got it working (rewired compressor, cleaned coils, mech, replaced ballast and starter) and cleaned it up too; however, a tab is busted on the one of the outside 'Delivery Gate Operating Bar'. So the far left column cannot vend. Other than that it works great on five columns (sixth can be a Precool/Private Stash column). I do still need to double check all switch adjustments as I haven't had bottles in all columns yet, but I got until 3/5.
Anyway, I am going to donate it to my son's elementary school for their "Spring Carnival" Silent Auction. I am going to load it with some vintage soda in the bottle(thinking "Dad's" and "Squirt" (AZ is the birthplace of Squirt)/bottled water/cans of Diet Coke and DP. I want to show that it can vend all sizes, plus I like the Dad/Squirt combo/innuendo
Maybe I could make a whole funny sentence out of the 5 selections? Do you think anyone would catch it? The principal?
Oh well - if anyone has some Selection Labels made up to fit the window of a Westy S-O-M for Dad's, Squirt, Diet Coke and DP, would you please let me know. The broken and taped original Coca Cola label I have measures 2 & 7/16"wide by 2 & 3/16" tall and the logo centered in the bottom 1 & 5/16". The other 7/8" was a pull tab with the part # printed on it.
I appreciate any help - I am not looking for original and could probably make something up, but was hoping somebody had some made they could email or US Mail me.
Thanks!
